Set up a tense, quiet moment, followed by a loud jump scare.. You know its coming every time.. That and one thing they're doing more and more is having the ONE guy who is determined to kill the bad dude.. ha motive, trains for it, is WELL-ARMED, dresses cool, totally expect them to come and slay the dragon.. and they get killed with very little fight.. C'mon! Maybe the FIRST time they did that it was shocking, but now its EVERY movie, so you know the well=trained, motivated by revenge, well-armed dude is gonna not even come close to saving the day..
Friendship is like peeing your pants.. Everybody can see it, but only you can feel the warmth..
